Abstract excerpt
A dipeptide insertion between codons 69 and 70 together with the amino acid substitution T215Y in the reverse transcriptase (RT)-coding region of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strains are known to confer phenotypic resistance to zidovudine (AZT) and stavudine (d4T). Phenotypic resistance correlates with an increased ATP-dependent phosphorolytic activity. Nucleoside alpha-boranophosphate...
